Product Overview

Interceptor

Interceptor is a monthly, prescription medication for your dog or cat that treats heartworm disease, whipworm, roundworm, and hookworm. Interceptor will treat hookworms, remove and control roundworms and whipworms in your dog. For cats, it is the only monthly oral medication that guards against heartworms and eradicates adult roundworms and adult hookworms. You can start protecting your pets early because this medication can be administered to puppies as young as 4 weeks weighing over 2 pounds, and cats as young as 6 weeks weighing over 1.5 pounds. It should be given to your pet on a monthly basis, on the same day each month. In addition to being effective, particular attention has been paid to improve taste which makes taking the medication more appetizing for your pet and less of a task for you.

Rated 5 out of 5 by clover Whipworm remedy
I was a little concerned that my dog would be OK on Interceptor because she's been on a different heart worm med for years now and because when she was a puppy she had heart worm. The reason for the switch was because Abby had/has whip worms and her vet thought it would be better for her to be on Interceptor year-round because whip worms are hard to get rid of. She seems to do well on the meds, but the true test will come after her 2 month appointment in early August. I'm optimistic.

Our daughter has a very spoiled and loved Jack Russell Terrier and he just loves these. He gets his once a month treat and we have no problem getting him to take this.

Rated 5 out of 5 Support your local vets!
I support my vet and will by my precriptions there. If this online pharmacy trend continues, you're all going to put your vets out of business! Then who's going to write the Rx?!?

Rated 5 out of 5 Interceptors
I have been using interceptors for years now. They work so much better then heart guard, is what my vet told me. I usually buy pill pockets to put the pills in to give to my dogs.

Rated 5 out of 5 Dogs are special friends!
Vet started giving this product to my dog two and half years ago, she suggested crushing it and putting in dab of peanut butter - works great
and he is a very healthy dog.

Rated 5 out of 5 Per my Vet
We were giving our 1 year old Boxer/Border Collie mix Heartguard plus until her most recent yearly check up. The Vet stated that in order for Heartguard to fully work it had to be fully chewed, which MOST dogs do not do...With Interceptor, just swallowing it works as it dissolves into their bloodstream...My dog takes the pill with no other food necessary..No worms and a healthy puppy still!! Will buy on Petcarerx instead of vet as it is MUCH cheaper!!
